Christopher Golden "The Lost Slayer - Dark Times" (Simon Spotlight Entertainment)

Buffy's spirit is transported into the body of her future self, who is being held captive by Camazotz in a slayer-proof cell. Another slayer named August is put in the cell with her and unfortunately thinks that the best way to get a slayer back on the job protecting everyone outside is that one of them has to die so a new one can be called. Of course, August has decided it should be Buffy. They fight. Guess who wins that one? Buffy escapes and tries to find out what happened to her friends and her world, while also keeping away from Camazotz's followers,the Kakchiquels. Another shocking thing happens at the end, keeping us on tenterhooks for the next one.
I am really liking this series. As I said in my review of Prophecies, Golden has a really good ear for the dialogue. It reads just like an episode of the show. I would recommend this to any fan of the Buffyverse.

It gets better, though I always had a personal gripe; given when the story is set (as compared to canon), which I won't spoil you about, which didn't spoil my own enjoyment.
